Re: Thailand 2015

Thanks for the info, will definitely look at the taxi option. We have read some bad reviews about Baan Sabai and numerous thefts of money, has this changed.

At 49 years old, flat is good to start with :D

Cheers

Thailand 2015

Flying into Bangkok on July 15th for a 5 week cycle tour around Thailand, a bit rainy but looking forward to it.

Has anyone cycled from airport into Bangkok avoiding the major roads?

We will then be heading North up to Kanchanaburi beofe heading further North to Chiang Mai.

Would be really useful to know of any routes that may have already been done but also good place to stay in Bangkok for a day or two before heading North.

Thanks.

Re: Panniers etc on Ferries & how to have safe panniers

We have always left panniers front and rear and rack pack, sleeping mats on the bikes on ferry crossings and have never had anything taken, we just take bar bags upstairs and on overnight ferry a small bag with nightly items in.

Find a rail at end of ferry and just tie on securely.
